  1. Coomer hasn't done an eloquent enough job explaining it?? I'm shocked
  2. I feel like Joe is challenging this just to horsefeathers with Hurdle
  3. I think Javy could win a GG at every infield position
  4. It's quite possible he is this bad and is done being effective. He's 34 and has had injuries and is averaging in the 80s on his FB since last year.
  5. Do they honestly think we hit Marte on purpose to lead off an inning with a 4 run lead? Especially when Hammel was relatively wild tonight
  6. He's looked like that so many times after getting pulled I think he's just mad at himself and not Joe/Coaches/FO. If it was the latter I think we'd hear more about him fighting/being pissed with the team
  7. He can't handle a full starting workload at his age I'd imagine.
  8. La Stella has really handled that velocity well the past 2 days.....
  9. Heyward out the next 2 games per Joe
  10. Hammel's stuff might play up a notch moving to the bullpen and he could be mildly intriguing there. If none of the starters are moved I'd be fine with letting Hendricks and Hammel be the 5th starter based on match ups and even spot start for the rest of the starters for 1-2 starts if we have the luxury of a playoff spot locked up relatively early.
  11. I want to say Chris Sale and Carlos Rodon either pitched like no, or very few minor league innings. Edit: Sale pitched 4 innings at A+ and 6 at AAA before coming up, Rodon pitched 12 innings between rookie ball and A+ then 22 innings at AAA before coming up
  12. All of the games of this series are on national TV, fwiw. ESPN tonight and MLBN Tuesday and Wednesday
  13. It's very premature to say that. I agree. But in terms of things to worry about Heyward that's my only real "worry," that we have the offensive player of what he's been the past 3 years instead of a guy taking a offensive leap. Which, like I said, I'm more than fine with him being the player he has been the last 3 years on offense.
  14. The only thing I worry about is that it seems we aren't going to get the Heyward on offense that takes the next step/leap that so many were hopeful for and know he has the potential to be more. Instead we are probably "only" going to end up with a normal, solid, year from him of a ~10% BB rate, ~15% K rate, .250-.270/.340-.360/.390-.430 slash line and mid-low teens dongs along with his spectacular defense. Which is fine.
  15. Shut up Lackey, you slack jawed yokel
  16. Man, Heyward really rolls over a lot of balls instead of going up to middle or other way with them.
  17. This weekend? Plenty of them. For ones like bleacher seats? I figured those would always have demand on the weekend, even when the weather stunk. The bleachers were like half full at best on Friday.
  18. Bryant's ankle must be completely fine if they feel he can handle the OF, good to see
